(I comment on Shelby and Ashleys blogs)
Anyways, the poem Heritage is very overwhelming and informative. The poem reminds me of a majestic place hidden in the mountains of another country with just a few original people living there. There is no rhyme scheme in this poem, and there are only two stanzas both in which are completely differnt. The first stanza is nonet and the second stanza is a sestet. I cannot figure out what type of poem Heritage is but if i had to guess i would say Still wrote this poem as a memory or as a story. Overall the poem was very interesting it ends with italicised lines. Still cannot leave or move on from the mountains because everything from life to death has involved this mountain life and everything who makes up Still belongs in that heritage.
I saw your comments. Thanks for letting me know!
ReplyDeleteI think you've got a good read on the theme of the poem. What else can you tell me to go a little deeper. For example, you comment on the italicized lines, but you don't really analyze why they might be that way. Try to use some of our poetry language/terms when talking about the work. :)
